Ripe notes of yellow apple, pear, and lemon lead out of the glass, with oak aromas supporting the abundant fruit – light toast, warm cinnamon and honey. The fruit spectrum ranges from ripe and rich to lean and racy. There is a fruit-driven sweetness on the nose evocative of custard and rice pudding, and an underlying herbaceous blend of sage and thyme, with a lingering hint of flintiness. On the palate, the wine is savory with pronounced brininess and an exciting through-line of minerality. The acidity is brisk and integrated well with the ripe fruits. The note of flint follows on the finish, with lingering almond and saline flavors.
This wine is 1.5L.
